“ UNN IS HERE TO UNIFY AND MODERNISE THE EXISTING TELECOMMUNICATION AND DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURES ”
KELLY NGO HEAD OF CONTROLLING , UNN
He adds : “ We have also transformed the fixed network . When UNN was formed , it was in the transition phase to fibre access , with a copper network in the ground but not adequate for the services required . Initially , we maintained it , but then we started to accelerate the fibre network rollout so we could deliver higher , better bandwidth and high speeds to our customers - that is a huge achievement for the country .”
Highlighting the significance of this to the country ’ s WAWASAN 2035 programme , Ngo says : “ One of the related objectives is also to implement an ICT transformation journey , where it will transform Brunei to progress into a more digitally integrated future . So , with that , UNN plays a vital role because we are here to provide telecommunication services and to implement a cost-efficient and modernised digital platform .”
“ The initiative that looks to provide a digital platform is important . The pandemic , which affected everyone , showed that we need to become more digitised . Most business activities are now done digitally or virtually , so UNN has come in to modernise the network and improve bandwidth to ensure that people are still able to work , regardless of external factors that might challenge them ,” she continues .
